NEUROPAZ III:
EN HOMENAJE AL DR. EMILE BRUNEAU
Don't miss out on the international seminar that invites the adoption of the science of change at the intriguing intersection of behavioral sciences, technology, and communication for prosocial change.
The third edition of the Neuropaz seminar, in Honor of Emile Bruneau, will bring together 10 international experts and 10 Colombian leaders to explore the latest in the use of brain and behavioral sciences and their application to close the gap between theory and practice to foster trust, conflict transformation and the strengthening democratic mental models.
Join us in Medellín for an active hone-in experience that integrates lectures, training, and critical conversations on global advancements in the field from an applied perspective. This will provide participants with an active approach to learning how to use tools to identify, deliberate, intervene, and evaluate the impact of their prosocial change strategies.
The seminar fosters a platform for exchanging ideas and encouraging personalized work, networking, and inspiration for professional life with experts over three days of meetings and an exclusive working session for organizational sponsors.
